Transylvanian Plain (TP), with an area of 395,616 hectares, is considered as an area with a lowest capacity to adapt to existing climate change. In these conditions, for a better sustainable development of agricultural technologies, the deployment of measures to adapt to these changes and climate monitoring are essential.Purpose of this paper is to analyse and monitor the agro-climatic indicators between 2009-2016 and the data obtained will be the basis for the technological development of the recommendations adapted to the current favourable conditions. For the study we used 10 HOBO microstations located in TP that record the temperature of the soil at 10 cm, 30 cm and 50 cm depth, the soil humidity at 10 cm depth, the air temperature at 1 m and rainfall. In TP between 2009-2016, the multiannual average of temperature at 10 cm depth in soil is 11.50°C, respectively 11.47°C at 50 cm depth in soil and the multiannual average of soil moisture is 0.223 m3/m3. The multiannual average of rainfall is 514.29 mm. Results highlight evolution of agroclimatic indicators in TP in the period 2009-2016.
